what is NOX insurance policy and what does it do? also does it affect the earning of G&R points?

idk i just use it to reduce my income :O

It drains income, slows the ability of accounts to hit you in time and also makes it so if you take enough hits takes you to a different realm where no one can hit you if you take to many hits. It takes a glory point each turn and believe you do not gain any when under it

No matter how many G&R you have, and how many you make per turn, when on Nox, you lose 1 G&R per turn.

kinda mostly useless isnt it?

well if ur in a war, it makes it "harder" or more time consuming to hit kill ur ded, and if ur away from the comp for a long while and dont wanna be hit this will help lower ur income

If you are in war, it creates a lag between attacks. I think 5 seconds or so? If you are in a live battle, that can be enough time to pull out repair naq, and keep your defenders in the fight longer. With the few live battles I have experienced, it can be worthwhile.

i think it is 7 or 9 seconds but yeah general idea

it decreases your income, and also if you are massed while on it, after a certain number of hits, hit phases you out and puts you on PPT

also, G&R are not gained while on NOX and you lose 1 per turn

You arnt put onto ppt

yeah ive been massed and i didnt get PPT and when its happened in the past they filled more of my attack logs than the war with AK & SV.

This is also a great use of it . . . . makes a less appealing target!

The limit is now 40 full attacks against a target (or total value of 600 at's vs target). Sabotage doesn't appear to count towards this limit, but it should stop incoming sabotage if you have reached the limit of attacks. Each turn, 3 attacks are removed. The delay based on defCon is still there - up to a max of 7 seconds at critical.

Insurance costs 10% of your income, and if you also have your defCon rate active as well, nox helps by lowering the attacks against ceiling (ie. how many attacks can be made against you) before phasing your realm.

You do earn naq/UU as per normal whilst phased, but cannot attack. Also as stated above, you do not earn glory points whilst on the nox protection. However, it does cost you 1 glory point per turn to remain on nox insurance. If you don't have any glory points, it stays that way (ie. it doesn't go into the negative, and still allows the same protection).

NOX sucks i would have already been in G&R point range 2 times but didnt know no points are given if on NOX.
